fabPrediction: Compute FAB (Frequentist and Bayes) Conformal Prediction Intervals

Computes and plots prediction intervals for numerical data or prediction sets for categorical data using prior information. Empirical Bayes procedures to estimate the prior information from multi-group data are included. See, e.g.,Bersson and Hoff (2022) <arxiv:2204.08122> "Optimal Conformal Prediction for Small Areas".
